A year since the Nov. 8 presidential election

Where are we now, and where are we going from here? What have been some of
the major policy changes and community, political, popular responses to
those changes? Fill in the ___________ with your own curiosity.

Prisons and People in Prison

What are the stories regarding "re-entry" and the issues or solutions
around the lives of people after being released from prison? What
organizing is happening in and out of prison to support those recently
released.? How do classes and programs inside impact one's ability to
smoothly re-enter society?

Reproductive Justice

How are people working to change the institutional inequities that limit a
woman’s freedom to fully live out her sexuality and reproduction as she
chooses? We’d like stories that look at those inequities socially and
politically.

*C*limate Change and Climate Justice

We’ve typically focused on political and community responses to traumatic
climate change events. This time, we’d like stories that focus on the
science behind the impacts of climate change. And, we’re still looking for
climate justice stories that explore how gender, language, class, and race
affect responses to climate change related events.

+++

Making Contact a weekly radio show and podcast that takes on ongoing local,
national, and global issues.

We’re seeking sound-rich stories with ear-grabbing characters, interesting
angles, and solid facts. We encourage you to explore grassroots solutions
and the ways communities are organizing.

We look forward to hearing from you at pitches at radioproject.org.
